[pure-silver] Re: Dodging Tools

Tim, thank you so much for this ingenious wire-bending idea.  Elegant, 
low-tech, effective........the perfect solution!  And the arc as well, how 
fabulous!  And the fishing line, I don't think I "got" it before, but after the 
second reading I understand what was meant (hey what can I say, I'm a visual 
learner!! ;} )
 
Now I really feel like I've had a lesson from a master!
 
Thank you so much!
 
Sincerely,
